Hi,
first of all does anyone know where i can get a good scree protector and case??
Also .. i have been using my desire today and I have fingerprints on my screen. What is the best way to get my screen clean without scratching it. Has anyone else got this as well?
Microfiber cloths i find are best. I by a pack of 6 kent ones for about £3 from Asda. I normally change the cloth every couple of weeks. I'm in to car detailing and use the same ones when cleaning the inside of my vauxhall astra VXR..
Can you post the link where you bought your Microfiber cloths?
That's only for cleaning the screen, right?

Case and pen
I got my case and i pen that i ordered from Amazon the case fits properly but doesn't offer that much protection but it does the job. The pen that came with it works fine could be better but it works. Pictures are below.
Link is below but i think they changed the case you get with it.

Hi Y´all!
This might be a stupid question but never the less:
The Legend screen cover is hardened glass.
Given the nature of this thread can i then assume that Desire´s screen front is plastic?
Haven´t found the ansver in any of the reviews so far.
Edit:
Never mind! found the ansver, It´s glass. then why use screen protectors surely they´ll attrack fingerprints as well?
Regards ELO

Hi,
I ordered the same case (from Ebay).
However, click on the link you have put on ... the case has changed.
And the one that you and I have bought is now £40 more!!
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Brand-Luxur...2?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&qid=1270338006&sr=1-2
I got mine from ebay for £6.99 (he said he would send it off on the same day so I paid the higher price on ebay to get it quicker but I have not received it yet).
And on ebay it is £60 now! I thought it was a mistake until I checked it out on Amazon!
Is this for reel?

its from the same user, but not exactly the same product, from the pic, the higher price is claimed to be leather, "real leather" so thats why its higher IMO
I would say none of us buy it... 45 pounds is a lot of money for a... case... even be it for the HTC desire... so the price will definitely go down in the next few weeks to a more normal £8-9 pounds for a real leather case.

So the tip of the phone stays out I assume! I don't know how comfortable it is to slide it in and out of this case, but I don't like it, looks like it can scratch the phone from both sides with the edge of the opening.
Anyway, I've used a case with the Hero from Clove, and it's so practical and protective of the phone. A similar one for the Nexus One can be found here.
It should work for the Desire i think.
Edit: The quoted link shows a different case, refer to attachment in post #4

dunno why the price has jumped up so high, i dunno if it's a mistake, or it is real leather and they accidentally put the price low.
What I am saying guys that this case
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Brand-Luxur...7?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&qid=1270372814&sr=1-7
use to be about £5-£6
Now look at the price!!! Why the sudden increase? It is almost ten times the price I got it for! ( I still have to receive mine but other people have received theirs!)

I want to find out.
I do not think it is a mistake as they have the higher price on Ebay too now.
Whatever it is hopefully it means I got myself a bargain!
Should have bought more than one!!!

Because I have not received it yet so I do not want to email them asking them!
I have just got this case from e-bay and it also comes with screen protecter and cloth for under £5
click photo for link to e-bay
those brown leather dopod pouches can still be purchased for between £6-£7 from "no1accessory" on amazon:
http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/search/r...0SV&rh=p_4:first2savvv&ie=UTF8&qid=1270382200
If you've moved onto a desire from a G1 like i have, the soft pouch that comes with the G1 is a great fit for the desire.
Just got these screen protectors and they arn't very good, seconds after i put it on there was scratches on there and its very thin.
http://www.amazon.co.uk/MEXXPROTECT...6?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&qid=1270547617&sr=8-6
Can anyone tell me where to find a good set of screen protectors?
Here are a couple great cases for the Gio, bought off ebay. They all fit perfectly

Can't you just turn the phone upside down from the photo? Usually they are a bit universal but if sound and power buttons are free... I'd like the strap at the bottom rather than the top of the phone anyway.
Yes but all openings are correct, so sound and camera size would mismatch
I have got the black one in first pic. Couldn't get the white one for my silver white Gio.
I got a silicone cover, i gues it already saved me already a couple of phones...............
Most of the gel cases on ebay fit perfectly.
I got one at bestbuy, works extremely well!
Is there another site with more accessories for the gio?
amazon has accessories for sale too.
hm..i was thinking to buy a silicon case can someone post some screenshots please?(those who have a case on their phone ofc)

Theres a lot of cases for example one for 2$ and some others for 8$-10$ per unit I bought one cheapest I think 1,8$ so I think I will get it soon but the quality will be poor I very want COMBO CASE just look for it in ebay it looks cool from screens

oh i see..nice
this cases looks pretty good! I was thinking to buy one, but I want to buy from a shop in my country...
I like the cases I find they make the phone easier to hold and protect it from drops and scratches. though they do make the device a bit bulkier.
I use this: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Black-TPU-S...Accessories&hash=item27c53fc339#ht_3947wt_932
But my Gio sometimes shutdown because of over heating. That silicone can't let it breath

For Romania you can use okazii dot ro. You can find every thing you need there. Hope it helped.
not fond of that romanian site. had troubles with em in the past.
silicone cases aren't that good...
silicon case are good if you not play much because if you play gio heat and battery go down fast

I just bought one at Walmart for like $38, but I'm taking it back. Didn't care for it too much, just my opinion. The phone fit well and it seems really protective, but i have to have something that slides in and out of my pocket easily for work, and it wasn't happening with this thing. I have a friend that just bought several cases at an at&t store for $5 apiece, originally $50 and more, might check there?

Yes $38 for original. Sorry, I don't have a link, I bought it in store. My friend bought 2 ballistic cases and another i'm not sure of, all for $5 apiece from the at&t store, all originally $50 or more! I really like my uag case, its slim, yet protective, although not as much as the bulkier cases. You should check out amazon.com.
So I'm based in the UK so I'll be posting stuff more from the UK side of things but will try to update this first post as much as possible and try and help owners all over the world if people contribute. Try and make this as awesome as the Nexus 5 thread!

Will review this once I get my hands on it
I have it. Nothing much to review really, it's just your usual generic TPU case.
If you insist on one, a redditor posted this Orzly TPU case review (which I'm almost sure is the same one really, just with a higher price tag):
On a personal note - I quite like it. Fits the device well with ports for everything. Pressing the volume/power button can be a tad harder, but nothing major really. Is quite "grippy"/rough on the back. I also have a tempered glass screen protector (by Orzly) and it seems to cover that up too with almost no buffer left (with less of a "bump"', obviously, between the screen and the top of the case).
In any case, you really can't go wrong with a dollar. You'll surely find something better down the line in a month or so (see the Diztonic case that's coming), but this is good, even if you'll only use it until a better one comes out.

When ordering my device from AliExpress I ordered the TPU case bundled with it, for exactly the reason I mentioned previously - so I have something up until a better case comes along.
I ordered it to the UK, but I'm sure that if you have Amazon or eBay locally you can find a seller that can ship that to quite fast.

I'm planning on getting the Diztronic case as well, don't get it me wrong - it does look great. But again, you can't go wrong with a dollar, I mean, you probably paid more to get to work today than on this case, so even if you served you protection for a couple of hours it's still worth it, time/money-wise.
Thanks for sharing

Wait for the diztronic case it'll be ready by the end of the week is the estimated date. Keep a eye out on the diztronic thread. It'll cost $10 but is of high quality.

I guess I'll have to. I hate letting my phone go naked for even 2 hours, I may just keep it in the box until I get my hands on the diztronic.
$10 isn't that much considering I spend almost that much on a Chipotle burrito for lunch...

yeah I saw that, looks really nice.
I ordered the $1 TPU just in case too, never hurts to have too many.
Won't get here for 3 weeks, but it's just a dollar...
I saw these tempered glass screenies I think I'll get too (just use some $1 ones till these come in)

3 of them for only $13 shipped is pretty amazing. I wonder if they are any different in quality than the $20 ones, I mean tempered glass is tempered glass, right?

Hello guys!
I want to buy some Nillkin material, my first time trying to buy and i see there is a lot of fake cases and screen protectors around.
I found the original Nillkin website but they don't see to sell from there: http://www.nillkin.com/english/
But also as a second result on google it's giving me this website: http://www.nillkin-case.com/
In this last one they sell through Paypal and they ship to my country, but im suspecting that could be fake website and selling fake Nillkin products.
Anyone ordered already from there ? It's safe or fake ?
Thanks

Got my Nillkin TPU nature case from www.mytrendyphone.co.uk
It's definitely an official case, came with the official nillkin retail packaging, and authenticity checked out.
You could check though the UK site, or try www.mytrendyphone.pt

I didn't really paid attention, the packaging it came in was pretty cheap.
I threw out all of it so can't really check. The part itself is well finished and definitely as good or even better quality that some of the Spigen cases I bought. No flashes or sharp edges at the mold part line, very clean cutouts and finish.
It looks genuine, and if it is not it seems to be using the same tooling process and material as the original.

Man that's a nice looking case, wish I saw it before the Incipio, it's cheaper, looks slimmer and just much nicer.
ended up buying from official store on aliexpress http://nillkin.pt.aliexpress.com/store/1614012
was the only official place shipping to my country
well just some quick review, i bought the nature tpu from nillkin on their Aliexpress official store, it cames with a small defect on the front (a small perforation on the plastic seems the plastic mold failed on that spot) and after contacting support they were helpless, after exposing my situation they sent me a "smile" LOL ... i asked them what was that smile about.. and 2 days after they replied again that defects are normal lol chineses...
